Ballentine's Boat Shop

Ballentine’s Boat Shop (BBS), established in 1974, is tucked away in Cataumet, Massachusetts. We front not a harbor or bay, but a cranberry bog. BBS has grown, at this same location, from a one-man shop with one small building to a facility with 5 large efficient buildings and a 10 to 13 person staff skilled in woodworking, yacht finishing, rigging, and bronze fabrication.

Ballentine’s now stores and fully maintains boats ranging from Herreshoff 12 1/2 footers to a 46-foot Power Cruiser. Our emphasis has always been to provide quality service, maintenance and restoration of vintage wooden yachts. The Ballentine’s crew is meticulous in their carpentry and finish work. We have restored and continue to maintain an impressive and varied fleet.
